A BABE WITH GOOD FASHION SENSE !!!

Happy Wednesday Everybody !!!

I hope everyone has had a great week since I last blogged. I would like to share this card with you that I made today. I totally fell in love with this image of the babe in high-heels and a hat IT IS GORGEOUS !!!

I have distressed the edges of each layer of the card and the ribbon at the bottom of the card. I have glittered round the edge of the baby image and the hat I had printed off another image, coloured it, then cut it out and 3d it with foam pads. The image can be purchased at www.digidoodleshop.com. Please go check out this store they really do have some stunning images.

Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday !!! Thanks for taking the time to visit. I love reading your comments.

NEARLY THE WEEKEND !!!!

Happy Thursday everyone !!!

I know that everybody has there own little styles and quirks when making their cards ... I have still to find mine. I love to look at other card maker's cards for inspiration and techniques that I have not tried myself. A few particular techniques I have long since wanted to try but have never plucked up the courage to try was aging and distressing. I had the tools just not the confidence to try. So I would like to show you my first attempt at roughing up the edges of your paper/cardstock and distressing or aging the sides of your project.


I actually quite like the way it has turned out for my first attempt.
Thanks for taking the time to look !!! I love reading your comments !!

MONSTER PRAYERS

Hi Everyone !!!

Well for the last two days I have been excited to receive my mail from the postman !!! Yesterday I received my new Sugar Nellie stamps and today I received my package from Wild Orchid Crafts. It is the first time I have ordered any flowers and lace from Wild Orchid .... I was not disappointed they are STUNNING !!! Very much looking forward to playing with them !!!

This is a card I made the other day. The stamp is called MONSTER PRAYERS and is from Victoria Case.

You may have noticed that the last few cards I have I have ventured to using my sewing machine that Santa brought me OH I am just loving using it !!!

Can you believe it is nearly the weekend already !!! I am not complaining no work and hopefully the chance to craft !!! Although my local craft shop has their 2 day craft extravaganza this weekend and there are loads of demos so will be heading there on Sunday I think ... usually quieter than the Saturday.

Thank you for popping in and thank you again for all your kind comments ... I so appreciate them !!!
